<section name="Building Apache log4j">

<h2>Introduction</h2>

<p>This is a detailed instruction to reproduce the log4j distribution
either to verify that the release is reproducable or to prepare
a hot-fix.</p>

<p>The log4j build is platform dependent. The best is to setup a VM using virtualbox (or similar),
install Ubuntu and follow the steps here.</p>

<h2>Preparation of environment</h2>

<h3>Install Sun Java 6</h3>
<pre>
$> sudo sed  's/restricted/restricted universe multiverse/' -i /etc/apt/sources.list
$> sudo apt-get update &amp;&amp; sudo apt-get -y update
$> sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk
</pre>


<h3>Install Maven 2, Subversion, mingw and xemacs21, openssh-server:</h3>

<pre>
$> sudo apt-get install maven2 subversion mingw32 xemacs21 openssh-server
</pre>

<h3>Copy Win32 version of jni_md.h for NTEventLogAppender.dll</h3>

<pre>
c:\>cd "\Program Files\Java\jdk_1.6.0_16\include\win32
c:\>scp jni_md.h username@hostname:

$> export JNI_WIN32_INCLUDE_DIR=/home/username
</pre>

<h3>Signing &amp; Deploying</h3>

<p>Create a local ssh key with no passphrase to enable 
"deployment" of site back to the local machine using scp.</p>

<pre>
$> ssh-keygen
$> cd ~/.ssh
$> cat id_rsa.pub >> authorized_keys
$> ssh localhost
$> exit
</pre>

<p>It's important to add localhost and people.a.o to the list of permanent allowed hosts.
Besides the above, this should have been runned at least once:</p>

<pre>
$> ssh people.apache.org
</pre>

<p>If you intended to deploy jars to the repo or update the site,
you need to set up ssh to use private keys to access people.apache.org
and create or modify ~/.m2/settings.xml to specify user name and key location.
</p>

<pre>
&lt;settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0"
          xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
          xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/SETTINGS/1.0.0 
              http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd"&gt;
   &lt;servers&gt;
    &lt;server&gt;
      &lt;id&gt;logging.repo&lt;/id&gt;
      &lt;username&gt;USERNAME for people.apache.org&lt;/username&gt;
      &lt;privateKey&gt;/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa&lt;/privateKey&gt;
      &lt;passphrase&gt;&lt;/passphrase&gt;
    &lt;/server&gt;
   &lt;/servers&gt;
&lt;/settings&gt;
</pre>

<p>You should test your ssh connection to people.apache.org 
and localhost before attempting a deployment like:</p>

<pre>
$ ssh -l USERNAME people.apache.org
$ ssh localhost
</pre>

<h2>Building release artifacts</h2>

<p>Before you build, please make sure you have a nonblocking editor set as SVN editor. Like:</p>

<pre>
$ export SVN_EDITOR=xemacs
</pre>

<p>Other checks:</p>

<ul>
    <li>Please make sure changes.xml reflect all fixed issues. The release date in changes is to be set
    to the date the release candidate is created.</li>
    <li>Please update doap_log4j.rdf to reflect the correct version. Use the same release date as in changes.</li>
</ul>
<p>The release artifacts were originally built by:</p>

<pre>
$> svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/trunk log4j
$> cd log4j
$> mvn package release:prepare
$> mvn release:perform
</pre>

<p>Note: you'll be ask for a SVN tagname. Please use the following pattern: v1.2.17-RC1.</p>

<p>
Attention: this is an non-interactive build. In some cases it is necessary
to add: -Dusername=paouser -Dpassword=paopassword 
to the release plugin commands. This is surely not safe because your password
can be seen clearly. 
</p>

<p>Sometimes iz might be necessary to disable keystore on Ubuntu machines when the automatic svn commit fails. To do this, add the following line to .subversion/config in your [auth] section:</p>

<pre>password-stores =</pre>

<p>The release artifacts can be rebuilt by:</p>

<pre>
$ mvn release:perform -DconnectionUrl=scm:svn:https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/tags/v1_2_16
</pre>

<p>ATTENTION: if your asc files are not created, you need to create them manually. F. e.</p>

<pre>
    #!/bin/sh

    if [ -n "$1" ]
    then
      root_dir=$1
    else
      root_dir=.
    fi

    for file in $root_dir/*.jar $root_dir/*.pom $root_dir/*.zip $root_dir/*.tar.gz; do
       echo §file
        gpg --armor --output $file.asc --detach-sig $file
        echo "GPG verification output"
        gpg --verify $file.asc $file
        echo "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
    done
</pre>


<p>Building site and artifacts from a tag:</p>

<pre>
$ svn co https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/tags/v1_2_16
$ cd v1_2_16
$ mvn site assembly:assembly
</pre>

<p>TODO: the following section describes site staging. This must be altered: the staging must not happen in SVN.</p>

<p>
The website content will automatically be staged to the ASF SVN repo by "mvn site-deploy".
This phase checks out https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/site/trunk/docs/log4j/1.2 
into target/site-deploy, copys the generated documentation to that directory using
scp to localhost and then commits the changed content.  You will be prompted for an
SVN commit message using the configured SVN_EDITOR.  A commit message must be entered or the
site commit will be aborted.
</p>

<p>
The staged content can be tested by opening 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/site/trunk/docs/1.2/index.html, 
however some links may be broken due to the staged location.  
The staged version can be published to the main public site by executing 
"svn update" in /www/logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2 on people.apache.org.
</p>

<h2>If a vote has failed</h2>
<ul>
    <li>Send a "cancel" note to the mailinglist (usually resend the vote mail with [CANCEL] in subject</li>
    <li>Delete the RC artifacts from:<pre>http://people.apache.org/builds/logging/repo/log4j/log4j/</pre></li>
</ul>



<h2>If a vote has passed</h2>

<p>If a RC has passed the vote, these steps are necessary:</p>

<p>Rename the tag:</p>
<pre>
$> svn mv https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/tags/log4j-1.2.17-RC1 https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/logging/log4j/tags/log4j-1.2.17
</pre>

<p>mv the tar.gz and the zip files to p.a.o dist</p>
<p>Create a jar file containing your artifacts: jar cf log4j-bundle-1217.jar *</p>
<p>Upload the bundle to repository.apache.org and follow the instructions to get the artifacts from staging to proper</p>

<p>Send an announcement to: announce@apache.org, general@logging.apache.org, log4j-dev@logging.apache.org, log4j-user@logging.apache.org</p>
